New York Labor Day Weekend

On Labor Day weekend I met Gabe in New York. We had so much fun. There was so much to see there and not enough time. We got to see so much.

If you look closely above the screens is the ball that drops on New Years Eve. Empire State Building


This Macy's is huge. It is the size of a whole block. It has 9 floors. We stopped looking around and just kept going up the escaladors. Stop at the floor then got back on the esclaldor to go to the next floor.







This is a 9/11 memorial. It is of floor tiles that have been personalized for people that were lost.


We were going to the Statue of Liberty this day, but to go inside the statue you had to be there at 730am. So we went back another day.





My first Subway ride. Very Clausto. But cleaner than I expected.


Underground!!!

Ahh!!! fresh air!

Wall Street










Mimicking the statue. Very Nice :)





There was a big crowd to take a pic of the bulls head so I took one with the bulls ass! Ha!


Boat museums

One day I will buy him a boat. He likes to pretend.


Brooklyn Bridge




See more pretending.


Grand Central Station



After this long day of touring New York are feet were hurting and we were super tired. When we walked into the hotel one of Gabe's Clients gave us tickets to go to a concert for a Brazilian star Ivete Sangalo. We had 30 minutes to change and head over to the concert. We had crew tickets so we had a good view of the show but no chairs to sit in. So we stood the whole time and danced. It was alot of fun but I was excited when it was over so I could go sit in the cab. :)


Sunday of Labor Day was Brazillian Day at Times Square. We didn't stick around to long because there were so many people and it was clasto. We got Pasteis and got out of there. :)




Central Park
Central Park was really pretty. We did alot of walking and looking around. Central park is huge! You can get lost in that place.



I love this pic of Gabe and the Bridge













The first Post Office in America




On out last day of vacation, we headed to the Subway early in the morning to make it to the Statue of Liberty and get tickets to go inside. On our way we saw Good Morning America filming.



A depressing Statue

We were not able to go all the way up to the Crown. But here is the view on your way up.


Yes, I'm wearing an I Heart New York Shirt



Ferry ride to Ellis Island



Ellis Island

The Museum was really cool lots of different rooms with so much to look at. By the time we got there though we were beat. There are only a couple of pics.
